stop fixing what your AI agent got wrong in the design
today I'm launching Buildkit, the Astro design system your AI agent already knows

astrobuildkit.com
i've been building and selling dashboard templates and component libraries for over 15 years. Today also marks exactly 6 years since I launched Tailkit 1.0, and Buildkit is the biggest project I've shipped since
the problem: your agent can write the code, but it guesses the design. Spacing drifts, sections don't match, props get made up, and every page ends up looking generic. Fixing it by hand takes longer than building it
Buildkit gives your agent a real design system to build with: 41 core blocks in 17 families, 19 backgrounds, 9 themes plus your own brand theme, dark mode everywhere, and 60 animated visuals from CodedVisuals included
each core block turns into many designs through its props, slots, backgrounds, and themes
the rules ship as skills, so your agent builds with them instead of guessing. Fill in a brief, run /buildkit-website, and it proposes every page for your approval, then builds it. /buildkit-audit checks it before launch. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and more
static Astro, fast and accessible by default. You own the code, so you can change anything
it keeps growing with lifetime updates through /buildkit-update that keep your changes, supported for years, the way my products always have been
it's live now, and the first 150 buyers get early bird pricing
a repost today means more than you'd think. thank you so much! 🙏
PS: I ran out of time, so the launch video was made with Claude Opus 5.5. I'll be back soon to walk you through the design system myself, so stay tuned!
